On the way to the port of Ambo, the commanders of the combined fleets of the three navies of Sharad, Gisk, and Orenza reached an agreement, and the commander of the second expeditionary fleet of the Salad navy, Denis, served as the commander of the entire combined fleet, and was responsible for coordinating the operations of the three navies.

However, the commander of Dennis is more in name, the commander of the Gisk naval fleet, Gordey, and the commander of the Orenza naval fleet, Mihailo, it is impossible to really hand over the life and death of their own fleet to people from other countries to control, and with Dennis's reputation in the world, it is likely that the Gisk Navy and the Orenza Navy will be used as cannon fodder.

Therefore, when the combined fleet of the three navies found the incoming independent fleet outside the port of Ambo, Janis immediately ordered that the navies of the three countries should be divided into three groups: left, center, and right, and the warships of the three navies were not mixed.

The warships of the Salad Navy were in the center, and the warships of the Gisk Navy and the Orenza Navy were separated from each other, and according to the battle plan drawn up by the three commanders, the naval fleets of the three countries would surround the independent fleet in the middle in a semi-encircled formation and annihilate them in battle.

Before the start of the war, Wang Chengliang, the commander of the independent fleet, formulated his own unique tactic, which was to use the main gun range of 12 super dreadnought battleships, 8 quasi-super dreadnought battleships, and 12 battle cruisers to maintain a distance of 15,000 to 18,000 kilometers from the combined naval fleets of Sharad, Gisk, and Orenza as much as possible.

At this distance, the numerous dreadnought battleships, former dreadnought battleships and ironclad battleships of the combined fleet of the three navies almost did not pose much threat to the warships of the independent fleet, while the super dreadnought battleships, quasi-super dreadnought battleships and battlecruisers of the independent fleet had a certain hit rate.

Wang Chengliang called this tactic kite flying, and no matter what tactics the combined fleet of the three navies adopted, Wang Chengliang was prepared to respond to all changes with the same.

When it was discovered that the combined fleet of the three navies was divided into three forces, and the momentum was violent, the independent fleet did not choose to divide its forces, and still met it according to the previously drawn formation.

At 8:55 a.m. on December 4, 3011, two Bavaria-class battleships and four Queen Elizabeth-class battleships of the First Battleship Formation of the Independent Fleet launched the first round of main gun salvo about 23,000 kilometers away from the nine super dreadnought battleships at the front of the Shalad Navy.

Although not a single shell hit the super dreadnought battleship of the Sharad Navy, in the bridge of the Ares of War, the flagship of the Sharad Navy's Second Expeditionary Fleet, the face of the commander Denis became very gloomy.

The ultra-long-range salvo of the main guns of the super dreadnought battleships of the independent fleet reminded Janis of the fiasco in the Yanmen Strait.

"The six super dreadnought battleships that the other side fired at are about how far away from our five Ares-class and four Knight-class are now?" Denis asked in a deep voice to the captain of the USS War, Rofeyer.

Rofeyer immediately said: "Commander, it's about 23,000 kilometers, but at such a distance, the super dreadnought battleships of the baron's fleet should only shoot blindly, and it is basically impossible to hit our warships, the last time in the Yanmen Strait naval battle, the opponent's super dreadnought battleships were also pulled into 18,000 kilometers, and they hit our battleships for the first time." ”

However, it was very embarrassing that not long after the captain of the Ares Rofeier said the above words, the second salvo of the main guns of the two Bavaria-class battleships and four Queen Elizabeth-class battleships of the independent fleet was successful.

A 381 mm armor-piercing shell hit the Goddess Victory, a Naval Ares super-dreadnought battleship of the Sharad Navy, and directly destroyed a twin 343 mm main gun of the Goddess of Victory.

Rofeye was stunned and exclaimed, "How is this possible! Now the distance between the two sides is 23,000 kilometers! ”

Dennis's eyes also revealed a look of shock, he could still hit the target at such a distance, and even made Dennis feel a little afraid in his heart, but thinking of the scale of the combined fleet of the three navies, Dennis was a little more relieved, "Immediately order several battle lines of our Sharad Navy to close the distance with the other side's battle line, and let the fleets of the Gisk Navy and the Orenza Navy complete the outflanking of this baron fleet as soon as possible." ”

Wang Chengliang, the commander of the independent fleet, was also very surprised that he could hit one of the opponent's super dreadnought battleships at a distance of about 23,000 kilometers.

The reason why the six super dreadnought battleships of the First Battleship Formation of the Independent Fleet launched a salvo of their main guns at such a distance was more to boost the morale of their officers and men and let them adapt to the atmosphere of a big war as soon as possible.

"Hurry up and make sure, which battleship hit this shell?" Wang Chengliang turned his head and said to Yuan Fan, the captain of the Yongxiang.

Soon Yuan Fan reported to Wang Chengliang: "Commander, it was a 381mm armor-piercing bullet from the Kingdom that hit a super dreadnought battleship of the Shalad Navy. ”

Wang Chengliang said with a smile: "Yes, yes, the Kingdom has made a good start for our entire independent fleet, allowing the first battleship formation to continue to maintain the salvo of main guns, and the luck of our independent fleet should be good today." ”

When the distance between the Independent Fleet and the Sharad Navy was reduced to 20,000 meters, the two Ise-class battleships of the Second Battleship Formation of the Independent Fleet, the two Iron Duke-class battleships, and the two captured Sharad Navy's War Rain and War Snow also fired a salvo at the nine super dreadnought battleships of the Sharad Navy.

Immediately, the nine super dreadnought battleships of the Sharad Navy also began to fire the first round of main gun salvos at the independent fleet at a distance of 20,000 meters, but unfortunately not a single shell hit, and even all the shells were deflected 1,500 meters away.

And when the distance between the Independent Fleet and the Sharad Navy was reduced to 18,000 kilometers, the twelve battlecruisers of the 6th and 11th battleship formations of the Independent Fleet, as well as the four Giant-class dreadnoughts and four King-class dreadnoughts of the 3rd battleship formation, also joined the bombardment.

Janis, the commander of the second expeditionary fleet of the Sharad Navy, soon discovered that after the independent fleet had shortened the distance to 18,000 meters, he began to deliberately keep a distance from his own super dreadnought battleship formation, and Dennis immediately understood the intention of the independent fleet, "We must get closer to the opponent's battle line to about 10,000 meters as soon as possible, otherwise our eight super dreadnought battleships can only be beaten passively!" ”

At this time, the Shalad Navy already had an Ares-class super dreadnought battleship that was seriously injured and had to temporarily withdraw from the Sharad Navy's super dreadnought battleship formation.

After the naval battle in the Yanmen Strait, Janis had to admit that in terms of the technology of large-caliber naval guns, the Shalad Navy was far inferior to the Baron fleet under Su Yi.

The 45 times caliber 343 mm main gun of the super dreadnought battleship of the Sharad Navy only has a large hit rate at a distance of 10,000 meters.
